Our leader by earnings is of course Rich Hill Stud’s Shocking, whose classy son I’m Thunderstruck won last year’s $7.5million ATC Golden Eagle (1500m), a race set aside for four year-olds that has been given a boost for 2022 and will this year be worth $10million.

The list by winners holds interest shedding light on some of the sires that produce a lot of horses that keep winning as they mature with Written Tycoon on top by winners and also stakes-winners with five of his total 13 stakes-winners this season being four year-olds.
